# Range vs Spin

The clearest difference is price: Spin at Free against Range's $1.99. Spin also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.8) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months). Range's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Spin is free to download; Range costs $1.99 up front. Spin sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Range asks for nothing beyond the download.

Spin holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spin has 92 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Range's written reviews are positive against 65% of Spin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Range ships an update every 6 months, Spin fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
